Pinacolada

   Kerala, Onam and off I go to Puerto Rico.  Yes, Pinacolada was apparently concocted by a bartender named Ramon Marrero in Puerto Rico.  Coco Lopez( cream of coconut) mixed with rum, pineapple juice and ice. Cool and smooth it glides down, you will agree.  Sit out on your deck, sip at a glass and wish real hard.  Who knows, it may even take you  to a beach in Hawaii, just, maybe!  No harm dreaming, right? :)

  My husband is the inspiration for me to try cocktails.  Since the time I started blogging he has been persistently forwarding cocktail petitions.  I am only glad to indulge.  The bright colors and the chill drink is fun and easy to make.  


Pinacolada

Ingredients:

Unsweetened Pineapple Juice- 6 ounces
Coconut cream- 2 ounce
Heavy Cream - 1 ounce
Light rum- 2 ounce
Crushed ice- 1 cup

Method:

1.Blend everything together in a blender.
2.Garnish with a pineapple wedge and serve.

Notes:

1.You could reduce the amount of pineapple juice a bit,if you wish.
2.This gives you 2 servings.
3.You could also use a shaker to mix up everything.
4.The original recipe calls for Coco Lopez,the cream of coconut.

  30. love mostly all kinda cocktails except the creamy ones, the vanilla ones and the pineapple ones...which doesnt make me a big fan of pina colada, but the ones they serve in TGIF in the US (the UK one sucks) is pretty bearable for me.
    But the thought of sitting out on ur verandah and sipping these coolers makes me want one so badly...nice pics
